Or it means our data is garbage, which it is.

But even if it was perfect data, the r squared would be bad.

Possibly. We don't know unless we actually run the regression. I can't imagine it would be like, 95%, but I also really doubt it would be 3%.

Our conclusions would be the same GPA is not a good indicator of LSAT scores. That's what regressions are for, predictive analysis. However, I do think that having an actual versus predicted LSAT score graph would be kinda cool
